Local elected officials are hitting the streets in support of their presidential candidates of choice, attending rallies, handing out flyers, and talking to voters in an effort to boost turnout for tomorrow’s primary.

Both leading Democrats will be in the area, with Senator Obama speaking at a rally in the Meadowlands in New Jersey today and Senator Clinton holding a Super Tuesday celebration in Manhattan tomorrow night.

Among elected officials, Mrs. Clinton leads the way with dominant levels of support from state and local leaders. In addition to endorsements from Governor Spitzer and the Assembly and City Council speakers, Sheldon Silver and Christine Quinn, Mrs. Clinton enjoys the support of 39 of the 51 council members.

Politicians including Ms. Quinn, reps. Anthony Weiner and Carolyn Maloney, and a former vice presidential candidate, Geraldine Ferraro, spoke out for Mrs. Clinton at Union Square on Saturday. Yesterday, Council Member Miguel Martinez and Rep. Charles Rangel led a “Latino caravan” through Washington Heights to rally supporters.

“We’re proud of the incredible enthusiasm for Hillary across this city and throughout the state, and we are out there working for every vote,” a spokeswoman for the Clinton campaign, Risa Heller, said yesterday in a statement.

Mr. Obama commands the support of a handful of local politicians, including five council members and several state senators and Assembly members, mostly concentrated in Brooklyn. On Saturday, Council Member Helen Diane Foster, who represents parts of the Bronx, spoke at a “Women for Obama” rally in Columbus Circle. On the Republican side, Senator McCain is counting on an endorsement from Mayor Giuliani and other officials to help him win New York, where several polls show him holding a large lead over Mitt Romney. On Tuesday, elected officials from New York and other states, including Senator Lieberman of Connecticut and Governor Crist of Florida, will hold a rally at Rockefeller Center in support of Mr. McCain. A spokesman for the Romney campaign could not be reached for comment regarding events scheduling in New York.

The presidential campaigns are counting on public officials’ support in organizing get-out-the-vote efforts and personally reaching out to potential supporters. Because New York’s Democratic primary awards candidates a proportional amount of delegates instead of operating on a winner-take-all basis, running up the margin of victory is especially important.

Council Member Lew Fidler, who represents parts of Brooklyn and said he sent out an endorsement letter supporting Mrs. Clinton to voters this week, is helping out with phone bank efforts, and will greet commuters at subway stations and near polling stations. “I think Super Tuesday’s going to be a pretty super day,” Mr. Fidler said of Mrs. Clinton’s chances in the state.

Council Member Charles Barron of Brooklyn has printed up 10,000 fliers urging New Yorkers to vote for Mr. Obama. and will talk to voters and distribute campaign materials in housing developments and at subway stops tomorrow. Mr. Barron said he spoke in three churches yesterday in support of the senator of Illinois. “I think he can do very well in New York City,” he said yesterday. “In New York State, I think he’s going to get a good share of delegates, but whether he can win upstate is another question. I think he’s coming into Super Tuesday in the best position he could possibly dream of being in.”
